Hi,

Currently I owned & lived in double bricks unit for years.

The shower room keeps leaking and the paint outside shower room wall dropped a lot due to the leaking.

I think very likely the water pipe inside the wall has the problem. So who should be pay the bill if I call plumber to fix it.

And do i need to contact to strata first before I call plumber to visit my home.

Thanks a lot

Call the strata manager or contact your management committee (or both). The key thing to determine is whether the pipe and/or wall are common property and an owners corporation responsibility to investigate and repair or part of your lot/unit and your responsibility. Even if it turns out to be your responsibility, it will be appreciated as a courtesy that you checked and notified the owners corp.
